Searching for Linked Items (redux)
 
There is a thread by this same title from 2005, but it doesn't shed light on my question.

I've inadvertently linked a Folder inside a rather large database, but searching on the Item Title only turns up one search result - which makes sense when dealing with linked items (there really is only one instance of the Item all the rest are virtual).

But how do I find these phantoms?

If this has been answered before, my apologies, I tried searching thru the forum but can't seem to narrow the phrasology to something meaningful.

If the item is logically linked in multiple locations, select the item, and the Item Parents pane (Ctrl+6) will show all the locations. Double-click on one of the parents, then select the Folder child item and Shift+Del to delete that logical link.

Alternatively, add the Lineage column to the Search Results pane. All logically links of the item will be shown; select and delete as desired (use Shift+Del to delete permanently instead of to Recycle Bin).

That did the trick, thanks for the insight.
